マラガのビーチ

Best Beaches in Malaga

Malaga’s coastline offers diverse environments, from the central, bustling Malagueta Beach to the water-sport-oriented La Misericordia. To the east, the historic Baños del Carmen features early 20th-century bathing pavilions, while the traditional fishing districts of Pedregalejo and El Palo are characterized by series of small, man-made coves. These eastern beaches are known for their promenade lined with traditional chiringuitos serving wood-fired espetos of sardines.
